Today was my follow-up appointment with my oncologist. Doc Esther came back from vacation and was running about an hour behind schedule. Don't you just hate it when you have to wait at doctor appointments? But, I try to relax and not get overly anxious.
My INR for my coumidine is 1.7 (needs to be between 2-3). So, she wants me to go up 1/2 a pill (1-1/2 pill per day).
My white blood cells are low. So, I will need to get a shot of Neulasta 24 hours after my chemo (Friday). I'm not liking the side effect list .... man, oh man. Hoping insurance pays a good chunk of it.
My blood pressure was good :)
I asked her to write a 90 day script for my nausea medicine. She had only been writing them for 15 pills at a time and it cost $38.50. I explained our discount plan that it would be $15 for 90 day supply. I dropped off the script on the way to work only to discover that it had been written for 30 days for $232 dollars. Oh boy.... it took lots of phone calls to get that all squared away. Mission accomplished.
Tired ....
It's been nice having Jasmine spend the night yesterday and today. She made chilie for dinner and has been helping around the house. I'm glad she has been able to lend a helping hand!
Good night ~
